Captain Scott's Invaluable Assistant Edgar Evans - Isobel Williams

Roedd Edgar Evans (1876-1912) yn gweithio ar yr HMS Majestic lle'r oedd Capten Robert Falcon Scott yn gwasanaethu fel Is-Gapten. Ymunodd Edgar ag ymdrech gyntaf Scott i gyrraedd yr Antarctig ar long y 'Discovery' yn 1901, ac wedyn ar y 'Terra Nova' yn 1910. Ond Edgar Evans, y cawr o Rosili, oedd y cyntaf i farw yn yr amgylchiadau enbyd a wynebodd y criw.

English Description: Petty Officer Edgar Evans was Captain's Scott's 'giant worker' and his 'invaluable assistant'. He went with Scott on both the British Antarctic Expeditions of the early 1900s - the 'Discovery' expedition of 1901 and the 'Terra Nova' expedition in 1910 - distinguishing himself on both. Tragically, Evans was the first to die on the ill-fated return.
